OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the feasibility and clinical utility of standing CT in ruminant species.
ANIMALS: Medical records of ruminants that underwent standing CT from January 2019 through August 2025 were reviewed.
CLINICAL PRESENTATION: 9 cases met inclusion criteria. Cases included bovine (n = 7) and small ruminants (2). There were 7 males and 2 females. Ages ranged from 3 to 84 months. Weights ranged from 83 to 600 kg. Cases presented for a head tilt (n = 4), a submandibular mass (1), head shaking (1), and lameness (3).
RESULTS: Anatomic regions of interest imaged with CT included the head (n = 6) and distal limbs (3). A final imaging diagnosis was achieved in 8 of 9 cases. Diagnosis included otitis media (n = 4), mandibular lymph node abscess (1), stenosis of retroarticular foramen (1), septic arthritis (1), and fracture (1). Animals tolerated standing CT imaging well, and no complications were encountered.
CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Sedated standing CT of the head and distal limbs is feasible in ruminants and may be an option in patients that are amenable to a standing imaging procedure.
